its nothing like the one mentioned above...but recently in may when i was flying from jakarta to singapore,to visit my parents, i was sitting in the last row of business class, and just two seats back in economy, just as the plane was getting ready to take off, revving up the engines, i could hear someone counting outloud... 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 .. etc.. and im thinking...why the hell is he counting like this, is he counting for the plane or something else about to explode...i dont know it just worried me...then i hear... OK DAD LET'S GO..!!!
in the end he was counting down take off for his kid... but it was still worrying... :)
the only time i really worry about danger living in Jakarta, is when i have to go to the airport or get on a plane... anytime on the streets I always feel safe..
